host: ronald reagan also singled out the court on past decisions. guest: never in that way. the president has talked about court cases all the time, but never like that. what i am saying to you is that we have this divisiveness and partisanship that they love to rail against, when it comes to republicans. partisan john boehner cannot get anything through the house or senate, and they become part of the problem. the supreme court is supposed to be non-partisan. they are supposed to not be attacked. i feel that it is really an undercutting. for two years, he says the citizens united is a threat to democracy. how dramatic can you be? it is one thing to say you disagree. it is another to say it is a threat to our democracy, so when he says that for two years and attacks the supreme court and says, i need to half a level playing field. i cannot unilaterally disarm. it is a shame it has come to that. >> a lot of people want to weigh in. he is the founder and president of citizens united. he has this point. the president did not flip-flop. he did say you cannot fight them with a st
